Malfoy Manor

"Don't be reckless, or stupid. You said I didn't help? You certainly aren't by doing that."

"So I got a little ahead of myself, at least they'll be weaker when we get back and we will."

"You don't get it, do you? They won. They're stronger than we think they are!"

I sigh and sit down, "That's the only logical conclusion, as much as I hate saying it."

"You of all people should have realised that," he says coldly.

"I saw the truth of it all after Death stepped out. It was our vanity that caused this. Our misguided over-zeal in our abilities."

"No.
"It was you. A lot of us can see sense, you know. We know where we're weak. You get caught up in your fabulous image of being invincible."

At long last, I'm too stunned for words.

"Did you ever consider that we were weak? Or did you just go, 'Oh! Forget that! Let's not improve our own side; instead, let's focus on destroying the other one!"

I just sit there... speechless.

OOC: Jay, my boy, you are on a ROLL tonight!

IC: "You concentrated too much on the other side, and you didn't spend enough time thinking about your own. That's why we failed, Crouch. Because of you. We work our asses off, and you just prance around and torture everything in sight."

".......... I'm sorry........."

"Sorry can't turn back time and win us the battle!"

OOC Well if he got a time turner... hell if he got a time turner he could just go back and kill Dumbledore when he's on the crapper or something. Hell a lot of HP's problems could've been solved with a time turner.

Dumbledore: -Goes back in time and finds Merope Gaunt, 'Listen... having a kid with that guy sounds like a good idea on paper, but trust me, it's not."

IC

"But I have now learned my lesson, I'll strength us and let you strengthen me. You're right, I don't deserve to be a leader."

OOC: Those mental images... xD
Why didn't Dumbledore ever, you know, go back and save Harry's parents? Simple logic.

IC: "You... agree?"

"Yes... the entire purpose behind my existence is serving the Dark Lord and destroying the Ministry. But my arrogance made me believe myself invincible, only the Dark Lord is that. This fall was so I can realize that, to cure me of my vanity."

"What're you gonna do, then?"

"I'm going to make our side as strong as I can, and not treat myself better than you all."

"It's about bloody time."

OOC Me: -.- bitch die, AVADA KEDAVRA

IC

"Let's do this...."

OOC: Jay's got a point, though.

IC: "First, the others have to go in to see the Dark Lord, and so do you."

OOC Yeah he does I know lol It's just if this were any other guy than Jay that would e the reaction

IC

"Of course, I'll be waiting here for them."

OOC: But Jay's so aweome Crouch could never bring himself to kill him

"He didn't seem too pleased with you... if he's angry at me, I can't imagine what you'll go through."

"There's no mistakes in his will, whatever he has in store for me, I deserve."

OOC Ohohohoohohohohoh you can't even BEGIN to comprehend how bad that'll be for you Crouch...

OOC: I'll admit, I'm ridiculously curious about what he's going to get.

IC: "Obviously you do. You cost us a battle."
